Setup and safety
Operational readiness before patient-facing launch
A serious vestibular platform requires facility planning, operator training, safety checks, and clinician-governed screening before use.
Facility requirements
Room, footprint, power, and continuity
Final specifications should be verified during site assessment and implementation planning.
| Recommended room | ≥18 m² |
|---|---|
| Practical operating area | ~10 m² |
| Platform footprint | ~6 m² |
| Power supply | AC 220V / 50Hz |
| Power rating | 1600 VA |
| Rated load | ~135 kg |
| Operator | Trained operator required |
| Patient restraints | Safety straps + safety bar |
| Emergency controls | Emergency stop |
| Continuity | UPS support |
Operator workflow
Trained operators follow a defined clinical pathway
- 01Confirm patient suitability and clinician-defined pathway
- 02Inspect room readiness, restraints, safety bar, and emergency stop
- 03Set up video goggles and workstation monitoring
- 04Run selected protocol within operator training scope
- 05Document observations, response, and follow-up requirements

Contraindications
Do not proceed where contraindications apply
- Acute cardiac events
- Venous thrombosis
- Pregnancy
- Severe medical conditions
- Overweight above rated load
Use with caution
Clinician-determined risk review
- Hypertension
- Retinal detachment
- Reflux esophagitis
- Post-cardiac intervention situations
- Other clinician-determined risks
Final screening remains with the supervising clinician and the clinic's governance process.
Governance checklist
Pilot readiness checklist
Document supervising clinician responsibility
Recommended before launch and during ongoing program review.
Define contraindication and caution screening
Recommended before launch and during ongoing program review.
Train operators before patient-facing use
Recommended before launch and during ongoing program review.
Confirm emergency stop and restraint checks
Recommended before launch and during ongoing program review.
Maintain incident and adverse event reporting
Recommended before launch and during ongoing program review.
Review referral and compensation structures for local compliance
Recommended before launch and during ongoing program review.
Track outcomes without implying guaranteed results
Recommended before launch and during ongoing program review.
Next step
Assess setup readiness
Review room, power, safety, operator training, and clinical governance requirements before launch.
